Cracked Basement Foundation Wall Stabilized in Truman, MN

Before

After

Keith & Cheryl of Truman, MN had experienced water in their basement for awhile, up to 3" of water had ended up in their basement at one time. They wanted a dry basement for good. Having driven by our building many times, they decided to stop by and find our more about our company and services we offer to help with leaky basements.

Upon a free estimate with our System Design Specialist, a full basement inspection was performed and also determined a cracked foundation block wall had an 1-1/2" shift. As well as addressing the water concerns, they were also interested in the foundation system to stabilize their basement walls.

What caused their basement walls to crack and bow happens when moisture and frost interact with the soil around the home. That soil expands and results in constant inward force on the foundation wall until it can no longer support the pressure, which causes the cracking, bowing and tipping.

The product installed are zinc-plated steel beams that are custom fit to your basement wall height and secured tight against the basement wall with brackets anchored to your basement floor and ceiling joists.

Keith & Cheryl were very pleased with the installation and were happy they hired a company that specialized in basements.

My service technician was Clinton Cater, he was outstanding. He also talked me into buying a Santa-Fe Elite dehumidifier, which was nothing I was even thinking about doing.

I had to call and ask about specifics for the electrician. I felt that should have been made more clearly up front. This took a couple of calls and the secretary had to get back cause everyone was in a meeting.
